Mister Olympus posted:I love these baseball murder boys. Are you considering posting it on mangadex or similar when you’re through I don't know. I probably should (and certainly wouldn't blanche if anyone else did it for me), but the main issue is there's really not any place to put a comic like this. Its niche is very weird. Too old for the mainstream webtoon crowd, but too absurd for academic historians. Which is a shame, I could teach a whole course on the story and everything it says about South Korean culture past and present. I'd consider trying to track down the rightsholder but I'm no Mister Beeg, and I can tell you from personal experience that South Korea is not a hospitable environment for cultural preservation, let alone translation.

Finally some payoff in Blind Alley.  Kevin Hart as Tiny Tim is an excellent zinger. I'm beginning to think Legends of the Heights isn't very good but maybe it's the pacing. A cut from messaging the friend to meeting the magic critter again could've worked. Some Guy TT posted:Too old for the mainstream webtoon crowd, but too absurd for academic historians. Old shouldn't matter when the work is this quality to potential fans, and I think any historian worth their slip of paper would be interested in something this absurd being popular. I'd hope you decide to help archive it, even a translation on mangadex would be wonderful. Saying this as a fan of good works no matter when they came out and loving this batshit insane comic. This is it. The perfect Boarding House. Just three hotheads sharpening their tongues on another jerk.

I would like it to not be a musical. Maybe he can do part of the credits song, but I want him to be doing his best dramatic acting the rest of the time.

EasyEW posted:Our Boarding House (March 24, 1923) I'm pretty sure the John Barrymore mentioned here is Drew Barrymore's grandfather. Some Guy TT posted:The Demons of Baseball Is he walking along the bottom? This comic has gone totally bonkers and I love it readingatwork posted:Blind Alley yes lmao Vargo posted:Wallace the Brave This whole storyline is great, but I love this one in particular and I want to imagine someone reading it without context Vintage Valiant (Nov. 21, 1954)

If you're going to give a postal worker a present, make sure it's less than $50 if you're giving money or a gift card because that way it cannot be construed as a bribe or attempting to influence a federal employee! Don't feel bad for not giving as much as you want if you do want to give us presents, honestly giving us anything is heart-warming and appreciated enough.

Murdstone posted:Mark Trail Kinda hard to mock Mark Trail when it's just three weeks of dragging out a week of exposition. I guess Mark forgot the seaside specter storyline, but hey, that was two stories ago so who could remember it? And honestly so far it's possible Rusty forgot too.
